About Brown County

County-wide stairlift service from New Ulm to the prairie towns

Brown County sits in south-central Minnesota where the Minnesota River bends past New Ulm, the German-settled county seat known for the Hermann Heights monument, Schell's Brewery and its downtown glockenspiel. Out from the river city, US-14 and Highway 15 thread together farm towns like Sleepy Eye and Springfield across flat prairie. The housing here — New Ulm's older two-stories, split-levels and farmhouses with steep cellar stairs — is exactly where a stairlift keeps a senior on the main floor. Sub-zero winters and blizzards also make outdoor steps a hazard for months at a time.

We cover the whole county from one crew, so a home in Hanska or Comfrey is booked the same way as one in New Ulm — no rural travel fee. We work with seniors aging in place, veterans, and families managing a parent's mobility, fitting straight lifts on standard staircases and curved rails on the turned stairways common in older prairie-town homes.

Frequently Asked

Brown County stairlift questions answered

Straight answers from a crew that installs across Brown County every week.

How much does a stairlift cost in Brown County?
A straight stairlift starts at $2,800 installed. Curved lifts, custom-built for turned or landing staircases common in older New Ulm and prairie-town homes, start around $9,000. Outdoor lifts for porch and entry steps start at $4,000, and heavy-duty models start at $5,050. We give a firm written quote at the free in-home assessment, and financing is available from $79/month.
Do you really serve the small towns, not just New Ulm?
Yes. We cover the entire county with one crew — Sleepy Eye, Springfield, Hanska, Comfrey and Searles are all served on the same terms as New Ulm. A prairie farmhouse off US-14 is booked the same way a two-story in town is.
What funding helps pay for a stairlift here?
Several paths can apply. Minnesota's Elderly Waiver (EW) can cover stairlifts for Medical Assistance members 65+ who meet a nursing-facility level of care. Veterans may use the VA HISA grant (up to $6,800) through the Brown County Veterans Service Office. Rural households 62+ may qualify for a USDA Section 504 grant. We supply the contractor quote each of these requires.
Is there a travel fee for rural addresses?
No. We charge flat county-wide coverage, so a home in Hanska, Comfrey or out on a township road off Highway 15 pays the same as one in New Ulm. The price you see in the quote is the price — no separate trip charge for distance or rural access.
How fast can you install?
A straight stairlift is usually installed within about 48 hours of you approving the quote, often the same week. Curved lifts take longer because the rail is built to match your exact staircase — typically a couple of weeks from the measurement visit to installation.
How do we get started?
Call (800) 965-0350 to book a free in-home assessment anywhere in Brown County. We measure your staircase, recommend the right lift, and leave a firm written quote with no obligation. If you decide to proceed, we handle ordering, installation and any funding paperwork.
